What Type Of Site To Begin With
You are going to start of with a free website. You may decide to upgrade, and get a hosting package and domain name at a later date, but that is your choice to do so. You may also decide that you wish to stick with the free site as it meets all of your needs. Only you will be able to make that choice, but to start with, a free site is perfect for somebody in your position. You are going to get your site from Freewebs, they are easy to build and they do not require any coding or script writing knowledge to be able to build it. So lets get you started!

Make sure the page tab is selected or you will see something different, it should load like this by default though. Enter the name Paid To Read in the box, important - never check the box "password protect" or your visitors will not be able to access this page. (It should not let you proceed with this checked as you have to have a premium account for this feature) Then click done, you will now see the following displayed in the middle of your screen (obviously yours will be a different template);

Step 6
Click the "Add New Paragraph" You will now see the editor, this displayed below;
When looking at the paragraph editor you need to make sure that the drop-down menu next to "Paragraph Type:" always displays "Paragraph Editor", it should display this by default each time you open it. When using the paragraph editor you can see that most of the tabs displayed at the top are very similar to the controls used with a word processor. There are some additional control tabs that you may not have seen before, so we will now cover what they are and what they do.

Step 7
There are now four numbers displayed in the screen-shot. These are the only four tabs that you need to know about when adding content to your site at this stage.

Tab 1 = You create an external hyperlink using this tab to another site or email address
Tab 2 = You create an internal hyperlink using this tab to a page within your site
Tab 3 = You cancel or "Break" a link using this tab
Tab 4 = You insert an image with this tab

Step 8
I suggest using the first paragraph to display a short introduction or description to the page. Now at this stage you probably have no idea what you could write here. That's OK, for now it is not important, so I suggest leaving this paragraph empty for now. As you start to explore the Internet through the ads you are going to be seeing, look at how other people have presented their sites. Have a look to see what kind of thing works and what doesn't. This is your personal choice as to how your site is presented but there are one or two things to bear in mind when creating your site. I suggest that you make your pages informative, simple and easy to read and navigate, and provide the information that you would wish to see when considering joining additional sites. As you wont be advertising this just yet, you have plenty of time available to look at other sites and and use aspects of them that appeal to you. Please note; never copy content directly, always make your content unique even though you may want to portray the same information. Always link to images from your Photobucket account never direct from somebody else's site. This will increase the bandwidth used by that site, and they will have to pay more for this increased bandwidth usage. So click "Add new paragraph".

Step 9
This is the one that we are going to use for your first programs listing. Again you may not know what text or information you wish to display with the link. Do not worry you will be able to add/create content here later, once you have an idea of what information you wish to display. So all you need to do for now is select which site you want to promote in this paragraph. Once you have made you decision write the name of the site in the "Paragraph Title" field.

Then copy the banner link for your Ref and Banner links document, for the first site/program you wish to list.

Place your cursor in the text field and then press "enter" to move the cursor down to the second row in the text field. This will give you the room to insert text above the banner at a later date. You will be able to enter as many lines of text above the banner because when the first line has been created, you only need to press enter/return on your keyboard, this will move the banner down and at the same time, create you additional lines of text.

Now the cursor is on the second row click tab 4 and a small window will open as follows,
Highlight and copy the ref link from your document containing the ref and banner links, right click in the bottom text field and select "Paste", the link for your image/banner will appear, as shown below,
The click "Insert" and you will see the following;
Now all we have to do is attach a link to that banner, so that when somebody clicks it, they will be taken to the site via you ref link. We do that by;

Highlight and copy your ref URL, then left click on the banner and a box will appear around the as follows;
When that box is displayed click tab 1, another window will appear as follows;

Click "Link to another website" and paste your ref link into the text field - making sure you have deleted the http:// that was already displayed, check the box "Open link in a new window" as shown below, and then click "Create Link"

You will now see the banner is shaded grey;

That's it, that banner is now linked to the site via your ref link. Anybody that goes to the site by clicking on that banner will (if they join) join under you. So we now need to save the work in order to preserve the link. So click "Done" in the top right-hand corner of the paragraph editor, you will now see the paragraph contains that banner. Click "Done" again to return to your Cpanel, click "See my site" in the top right hand corner of the screen. This will load your new site in a new tab. From that new "Public View" of your site copy and paste the URL of your site at the top of all your links in the Ref And Banner link document under the heading "My site". When purchasing advertising this is the link that you will give, so that your advert is tied to your site. From the public view of the site, click Paid to read from the nav bar to go to the page we have just created and you will see that banner. If you click on that banner it should load the site in a new tab/window. That's it, you have just created your first link.

Step 10
This works in the same way as linking an image/banner. Go back to your Cpanel and re-load the paid to read page that we just worked on.

Add another paragraph and type "this is a test", in the text box of the paragraph editor. Highlight the word test, by left clicking at one end of the word and dragging the cursor across the word. Then click tab 1 to see the link generator window, click "link to another site" copy and paste the following URL into the "Link address :" text box, again removing the original http:// that will already be there,

http://www.internet-earners.com/

Check the box to open the link in a new window, then click "Create Link", click "Done", then click "Done" again to return to your Cpanel, close the the tab with the "Public View" of your site, return to your Cpanel, click "Show my site" from the new tab that appears and navigate to the paid to read page, click on the word "text" and that will take you to my site.

So you can see that its possible to link any word to any site. So you now have the option available to use both text and image links when building your site. Now because you don't want to give me a lot of free advertising!, you need to know how to break or alter a link. So go back to that particular paragraph editor, highlight the word "test" again and click tab number 3, that word is no-longer a live link.

Now using the methods above we can turn the word "text" in to an email link. Simply highlight it again, click tab 1 but this time select "Create Email Link" enter the email address craig@internet-earners.com into the text box and click "create link". Then click done, click done again to return to your Cpanel, click "see my site" making sure you have closed the previous public view of your site. Now if you click the word test it will open up your email screen with my email address displayed into the "To" address field of the mail. So you can link any word or phrase to any site or email address. Now return to the paragraph and select "Delete" above the paragraph to remove it.

That's it, you now know how to create pages, add paragraphs, create and break different types of links. The next stage will help you with some ideas for the layout of your site.
